GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Miller grove is a pretty good school. The food can be pretty bad and the teachers can be mean people at times and not listen and understand students. I would like teachers to be more seeing and hearing of students and harsh consequences FOR PEOPLE THAT DESERVE THEM. Not just anyone thats done a minor action.
